Questions for this shipment: 

Question: Please give more detail on your shipment. How is it packaged? How is it loaded / unloaded? (8/21/2009)
Response: There are 4 pallets which are 8x8x6. They are 4 cubic foot bags of sponge rock, which is vary light. They are shrink wraped and they have a fork lift to load the truck with. At our place we don't have a fork lift, so we are going to have 4 or 5 guys to pull the bags of material off of the truck as quickly as possible. I think we'll unload in less than an hour. (8/29/2009)
Question: Does this load need a cover? What arrangements have been made to unload? How is it packaged? I will bid $600 if questions are answered to satisfaction. Thanks Bob (8/21/2009)
Response: It doesn't need a cover. The material is in 4 cubic foot bags, pallitezed and shrink wraped. As long as we know roughly when you'll arrive, we will have 4 or 5 guys to pull the bags off of the truck. I think we'll have the truck unloaded in less than an hour. We have a parking lot in the back which is probably the easiest to get in and out of. We will unload as fast as we can. The sponge rock is light so it's not too hard to move. (8/29/2009)
Question: we are looking for loads in this direction but would need closer to a full load to make it a reasonable price. could you more deliveries into the same load? (8/27/2009)
Response: Hello, We have limited storage space so the shipment is as large as we can fit. We rarely get shipments, so we can't think of anything else that we would need at this time. Thanks (8/28/2009)
Response: what is the condition of the road into your site from the interstate? and it looks like about 40 miles is that correct? (8/28/2009)
Response: Are you asking about getting to our facility from I-25 or I-70. If so, you would take hwy 36 and we are about 2 miles from there on paved roads. Our parking lot is paved and we also have a larger parking lot in the back which may be easier to get in and out of. If you're asking about the road into the pick-up site, Iv'e never been there but I know that we drove a U-Haul there with no trouble. (8/29/2009)
Question: Is each pallet 8X8X6 or all pallets equal to your demensions??? (8/28/2009)
